Iconic French electronic duo Polo & Pan (@poloandpan) releases their highly anticipated third studio album “22:22” via Ekler/Hamburger/Virgin, along with the new single “Petite Etoile” featuring Beth Ditto (@bethditto).
The 12-track LP sees Polo & Pan creating a dreamscape of playful riffs and sunlit grooves accompanied by evocative lyrics weaving through real life and fantasy as they take listeners on a journey of deep imagination. The result is a dynamic production that further establishes Polo & Pan’s signature sound as they push their creative boundaries and offer their unique style of French pop to the world. The album’s previously released tracks have already garnered over 8 million global streams and early support from notable media outlets.
Reflecting on their sonic progression, Polo & Pan share, “‘Caravelle’ was a trip around the world, with Latin and African sounds, and ‘Cyclorama’ was a trip in time, but ‘22:22’ has a more in-the-moment flow to it. We’ve leaned into a more Anglophone-French take on disco and pop and worked with vocalists of different styles for the first time.”
With “22:22,” Polo & Pan presents a sparkling collection of French Touch-infused pop tracks, drawing on live instrumentation, analog recording techniques, exciting collaborations, and coy surrealism. Drawing from numerology, the album’s title symbolizes balance within the universe and clarity and creativity within oneself, a concept the pair have brought to the forefront as they chart a more focused path as songwriters and artists.
